The Christmas holiday season is a time of giving. People decorate their homes and give gifts to those they love. It’s also a time of reflection, as we take stock of the year that’s come and ponder what we would like for the coming year.
Traditionally, Christmas has been associated with Jesus’ birth. In the Bible, he was born in a barn in Bethlehem, which was at that time inhabited by shepherds who were guarding their flock during this most challenging time of year when predators were on the prowl for prey. The angel appeared to them and proclaimed peace on earth, goodwill toward men – heralding in the new era of peace and hope that would follow Jesus’ birth.
Here are the best funny Christmas quotes to help lighten up your holiday season and make it more enjoyable. These quotes will help you keep the festive spirit lighter than ever!
